Studio apartment for rent in the UK has a jail cell in the living room

A flat for rent in the UK will stun with its unusual floorplan detail.

The ground-floor studio in New Street, Dudley, has a jail cell in the open-plan kitchen and living zone.

Formerly the West Midlands Police Station, the complex has been converted into an apartment block with one of the units retaining the original holding cell.

Taylors Estate Agents are handling the campaign, with the studio available to rent for £750 ($AU1,439) per month.

“Large studio with feature holding cell,” the listing reads, alongside photos of the cage that’s adjacent to the modern kitchen.

The agents even suggest the cell could be transformed into a bedroom or separate living and dining zone.

Just like a police station, the unit is very guarded with an intercom system and secure entry.

The unit is newly renovated with a grey and white palette and comes unfurnished.

Dudley is a town in the West Midlands in England, 12km northwest of Birmingham.
